Found one from Best Buy *open box* for $490.00. Literally box was open for the Z1 extreme. Cool system so far. 3 months of game pass ultimate was a fun surprise waiting for me.
I'm also wanting to sell my laptop with rtx 3070, but only thing stopping me is the RAM on Rog ally. If they had a unified pool of over 16 GB, I'd do it in an instant. I'll hold off buying one this gen and will join the bandwagon on the next one.
@@jal.ajeerau can buy a Asus ROG ally and a xg mobile gpu according to your budget and when u will be on the go play with the ally but when u want to do full fledged PC gaming play with the ally along with the xg mobile here I saved u some bucks
You can play games offline. Just need to set all launchers to their respective offline settings. Great video. Picked up an Ally during Black Friday. Great price at 500
@@pedalandypedal How so? They would release a newer less powerful version and call it the same? That doesn't make sense. The $400 price I'm seeing is an onsale price, likely in response to the Steam Deck OLED,.
@@cinemapigeon4898the Extreme version was released first which sits at 699 and they released the standard version later which sits at $400 quite often.
Thank you for this review. With the mentioning of our age & all 😂. I literally stumbled across this on display & the look alone stopped me in my tracks. I might consider making the purchase. Thanks bro 👊🏾
I am happy with Asus rog, switch, and Xbox. I own ps5 as well. But i want to stop gaming so much because it waste too much time. And the rog ally helped me alot
You may want to check this video at the 5:30 mark as it constantly glitches there. Also why do you blur out your feet? That’s very weird. Handhelds are not consoles.
I'm really trying to decide between this or the Steamdeck OLED! THEY BOTH seem appealing but my only gripe with Asus ROG was when i tested it in store the software seemed a little difficult to use. It was like a desktop UI and felt a bit buggy when i tried it. But I'm unsure
I have both. If you want a console experience with better battery life go with the deck, if you dont mind windows in a handheld form and play a lot of games not on steam go with the ally. Spec wise the ally is better but in order to use that extra power expect to only get a little over an hour of battery life.
Since the recent update today of the Ally, it's been easier to use with a plethora of features in the armory crate. But instead of an microSD card, you might as well get a two terabyte m.2.
I'm 53. Locked in my office playing on my PS5 and watching videos. Not all day mind you, wife and kids and all but... The battery on that thing is ridiculously terrible. You will be tethered to the wall. I returned the Ally Z1 Extreme. Solid video though 👍
No offense but the fact you play majority on consoles and are not tech savy shouldve been the first indicator to not get the Ally. It is a great device for those who know how to use it. You can get more battery out of it with a few simple tricks and can even replace the battery with a full scale laptop battery to rival SD battery life while also offering VRR, 1080P, A real desktop experience, and a gamepass capable device.
@@frankpatterson9682 Again I have both as well. Just out of the box they do have worse battery life but its because the hardware is so much more advanced. ROG Ally has the 4nm chip. With some corrections you can get the ally at 15w to last about 2.5 to 3hours which is fine for me. My friend put a 90wHr battery in his which lasts around 4 or 5 hours
It's a waste...... Just got mines today and armory crate se won't update 🤷🏽♂️. Literally everything will update but this stupid hub. Taking it back to best buy tomorrow
Lol the foot removing filters lolololol😅😅😅

Same here. This thing is so good. I have the deck also. With VRR and higher frames at 720p. This is crazy good.
Bump up to 900p. Barely less frames but it looks much better
Such a great year for handhelds. No telling what will be out thos time next year.
The foot censoring is hilarious😂😂😂
If you’re thinking about buying it, buy it it’s awesome
Im in a similar camp, and as i work in tech i dont wana sit in front of computer to relax and play games because it just feels like work
Didn't know feets where considered x-rated.....mans pixelated his feet 😂😂😂
Can I also play with my friends playing from Playstation? For example, I play R6 on ps5, if I get this, can I play R6 online with them?
If the game is cross compatible like Helldivers 2 would work
I just looked it up for you, it would be possible to play with them from the handheld device if they were on PS5

how do you pause and restart a game on ROG ALLY like you can on a nintendo switch ?
Is this the z1 or the z1 extreme
Lot of these videos im seeing are praising it then halfway through drop the bomb that its the extreme one
Is it really that good? Should I buy a open box one at Best Buy?

Handhelds are not consoles.
Feet blur was insane
Please make another uncensored version.
Is this the base model or extreme?
Thank you for censoring your feet unlike this other tec RUclipsr 😂
I don’t want to use game pass. I just want to play games I own. Is it possible with this ?
What kind of dumbass question is this? Of course you can
